Interés Humano

Sagitario A*, agujero negro en el centro de la Vía Láctea, generó una burbuja de gas

Fenómeno fue detectado durante una hora y media, y permitió calcular que la burbuja de gas efectuaba una órbita completa del agujero negro en solamente 70 minutos

París. Alrededor del agujero negro en el centro de la Vía Láctea fue detectada una burbuja de gas que circulaba a velocidades “alucinantes”, según un estudio científico publicado el jueves.

La detección de esta burbuja, que apenas duró unas horas, podría iluminar sobre el comportamiento de los agujeros negros. Esos objetos astronómicos son literalmente invisibles, ya que su fuerza de gravedad es de tal magnitud que atrae y engulle la luz.
